The windshield whipper blades were in need of replacing and it snowed the majority of the time that we had the car. It made for a very scary situation.

Quick pick-up. Easy drop-off. The vehicle was a clean, quality SUV. The only issue, which I forgot to report upon drop-off, was the door lock button in the door did not work, had to use the key fob to lock the vehicle.

When our flight arrived, the car rental counters were all busy and agents assisted travelers regardless of who the rental company was. This really expedited things. The SUV that we had reserved was there for us. When we got to it, we discovered that it only had 1/2 tank of fuel and it had not been cleaned. I returned to the desk where they quickly changed us to an upgraded SUV at no additional charge. The situation cold not have been handled any better. We were very pleased with our experience with Alamo and the rental desk at the Missoula airport.

Had to wait an hour because the car wasn't ready even though we had a reservation. Lines were unorganized and people were butting in line. When we finally got the car and left, we had received a call to come back because the paperwork was wrong. Finally got it straightened out. Did receive a discount at the end of the trip. That was appreciated.

The staff at the pickup location were accommodating, friendly and helpful. The vehicle that I was supposed to pickup was unfortunately not available however they made sure that we were happy with an alternative vehicle and a courtesy credit to the bottom line. I wouldn’t hesitate to rent another vehicle from this Enterprise location. Their follow up call to make sure I was satisfied as a customer also was a nice touch.

When reserving the car, it was not abundantly clear that the rental car company was not at the airport, but offsite and accessed by a shuttle. Likewise, it wasn't mentioned in the confirmation paperwork. The confusion and wait time added an hour to my 'go' time. When I went to return the car, my dropoff time was before they opened for the day and I was forced to call a taxi to get me from the rental car return to the airport, since their shuttle wasn't running yet. Read every bit of the fine print!

When I initially called it sounded like they weren't going to be able to provide a large 4 WD vehicle. They said to call 72 hours out, and when I did, the second person said no problem! And got us one! Thanks....

This was the easiest rental car experience of my life. Great service from "Jason". I phoned from the airport and he picked me up in a snowstorm. Had the car running to keep it warm for me. The entire process was seamless; drop off was excellent as well. Thank you!

The location of the rental place was about 8 minutes from the airport. In a perfect world, it would be AT the airport, but given how small Missoula is, and how quickly the shuttle process worked, it was a pretty minimal issue.

Staff was friendly, helpful, and fast with service.

Nothing, really. Short of being located at the airport, I can't think of a thing to improve.

The agent refused to honor the reservation I made for a midsize car and I was forced to pay extra for their only available suv. Additionally, their suv had stains on the seats and the interior smelled bad.

We had a confirmed reservation and arrived in Missoula to be told they had no cars. Give that we needed the car in the morning to get to Bozeman and there were no cabs available in Missoula we were put in quite a challenging situation. The Avis team member was unfriendly and boldly stated that not only was there no car, he had no idea how the reservation got through and certainly it shouldn’t have been allowed for a different drop off destination. Have had several tough times with Avis so will not bother with them in the future.
